There exist numerous excellent German private schools, a German-English Normal School, academies and parochial schools and in some states the German language has been introduced in the public schools of larger cities. Many German daily and weekly papers are published and have a large circulation. Singing and other musical societies, Turner societies, lodges etc. are in almost every large city and their membership is very large throughout the United States. In regard to politics the Germans are almost evenly divided among the two great parties, the Republican and the Democratic. The Germans have many Catholic and Lutheran and even some Methodist churches and care well for their pastors. |
